can someone shed some light on the movie, and Morricone's music?

NP -- Taras Bulba, Franz Waxpaper

The film stars Argento's daughter Asia. She suffers from the above syndrome, first brought to prominance because the author Stendahl suffered from it, where seeing artworks can jolt you into an altered state of consciousness akin to having an anxiety attack or being stoned.

Those sequences in the film use CGI technology to make paintings come to life as Asia sees them in a museum. Unfortunately, that's about as inventive as the film gets.

The rest of it is Asia being tortured in various ways. At one point she kisses someone who has a rasor blade in his mouth and cuts her lip and she bleeds---yuck! this isn't a date movie folks.

Although I do not have the CD, I didn't think the score was bad at all. Less atonal than other earlier Morricone horror scores, nowhere near as syrupy as recent stuff like The Starmaker et. al.
